Hey Scott !
I have a question, my friend who both me and him are 14 years old, has been training for 2 years can squat 100 kgs, deadlift 120kgs, and bench 70kgs 1rep max.
Both of us are the same height and he weighs 63kgs while i weigh 56.
Ive been training for 8 months and i can squat 100kgs, deadlift 120kgs, and bench 60kgs 1rep max.
He does look way more aesthetic than i do while both of us have almost the same number, keep in mind I've only trained for 8 months and he has for 2 years.
Just wondering why is this, is it cause of genetics, or different types of programs, he does do a more of a traditional bodybuilding style program while i do a 5x5 "power building" program. Is this why I've gained so much strength but i don't look as aesthetic as he does ?
I do like aesthetics over strength but just the way of using a bodybuilding program makes me bored, is there really a big difference in using a more strength based program over a hypertrophy one in long term , will I look more aesthetic in the next 2 years?
Thanks
